There Goes My Everything Lyrics

There goes my everything

I hear footsteps slowly walkin'
As they gently walk across a lonely floor
And a voice is softly sayin'
"Darling, this will be goodbye forever more"

[Chorus]
There goes my reason for livin'
There goes the one of my dreams
There goes my only possession
There goes my everything

As my mem'ry turns back the pages
I can see the happy years we had before
Now the love that kept this ol' heart beatin'
Has been shattered by the closin' of the door

[Chorus: x2]

There goes my only possession
There goes my everything

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
